Well, quite a lot of fuss. If I didn't know better, I'd think we were dangerous.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
As one of the commenters note: If every kiss begins with Kay, this is the natural progression. Language is dirty within, pictures safe. Technically.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Jessica, I am not discounting that study, but I will say it's just one study. In the course of my teaching I've at least skimmed 20 or 30 articles on caffeine, maybe more, and the preponderance of the evidence is that it improves performance. Not as much as some Rx drugs do, it's true, but coffee has the advantage of being widely available OTC.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Hmph. Still doesn't explain how I'm going to get HD-cable picture quality off the internet.
(Also, my cable provider is also my ISP. So even if I drop my cable TV, the only way I could drop Cablevision is by moving to a neighborhood with FiOS.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I love coffee and have a travel mug (=2 cups) of it every morning. Yum. I don't know if it does anything for alterness, but the taste makes me happy and the smell perks me up.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I am also hating your doctor, ita. I did the same thing with trazadone a month ago, and I HATED it. I got little to no sleep on it, the sleep I got was rotten, and I staggered around like a drunk the next day, was off balance, felt stupid. And it wasn't the shitty sleep; it was the drug. I know me some sleep-dep feeling. It was horrid.
And any sleep doc should know that there's no way to stock up on sleep.
I drink one cup of cappucino when I wake up. I used to drink tons of coffee, but I've been a one cupper for about 5 years now -- maybe another cup on really tired days, but abso never after noon.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You can get some iTunes TV shows and movies in HD.

My understanding of the science is that this is only true with occasional use, or when used to treat ADD. A cup every morning only feels like it wakes you up because without it, you're in withdrawal.

They mention buying from iTunes, don't they? That will get you HD, at least. I don't know about Amazon.

Absolutely. The whole not being able to see in single vision that didn't resolve until the afternoon? Major trazadone dosage fail. So now I have to hope the lower dosage gets me good sleep tonight or tomorrow night. Because I will be calling her back Thursday to give her a blow by blow.
